Easy Come, Easy Go

Wednesday, May 29, 2013

When I first blogged about these shoes, I took the easy path and wore them with a skirt. I wasn't sure how straps that extend past the ankles would work with non-cropped pants. Would it look better to wear pants with a tapered hem that is rolled, exposing the straps, or unrolled, covering some straps? Or pants with a wider hem, again rolled or unrolled? So many options.

For today, I chose skinny cargos with a side zipper that gave me two looks. From the front with the hem covering two of the three ankle straps, it looks like I'm wearing T-strap heels a la the 4" version of the Rockstuds. Whereas from the side, ankle straps exposed gave me the look as if the hem was rolled.

    1. YES most comfortable heels ever. The only problem is that I want to wear it all the time... even when outfits don't call for heels, lol.

  4. Always love those pants! I found an old pair from HS/College at my parent's house recently that still fit, are in great condition, but the bottoms are obscenely flared. I am going to take a crack at sewing this summer, so you have just inspired me to see if I can take in the bottoms and add zippers like yours. I hope it is do-able!

    And your new shoes with that purse...very nice!
